  1. RED CARD FOR SHEFF WEDpublished at 16:34 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Sheffield Wedndesday 1-3 Birmingham City

    Deary me, Sheffield Wednesday are down to nine men now after Daniel Pudil is sent off for a second bookable offence.

  2. goal

    Reading 0-2 Millwallpublished at 16:33 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Lee Gregory (73 mins)

    Sorry, Reading fans, I've done you no favours here. Lee Gregory captilises on some poor defending, rounds the goalkeeper and slots home to make it 2-0 to Millwall.

  3. goal

    Aston Villa 2-1 Burton Albionpublished at 16:32 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Ahmed Elmohamady OG (71 mins)

    Well, is this an unexpected lifeline for bottom-of-the-table Burton?

    An Ahmed Elmohamady own goal could set them up for an unlikely comeback.

  4. Equalisers galorepublished at 16:31 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Fleetwood 2-2 Scunthorpe, Accrington 2-2 Stevenage

    Two dramatic levellers in as many minutes!

    Firstly, Fleetwood have levelled against Scunthorpe through Bobby Grant while Accrington have equalised against Stevenage thanks to Billy Kee.

    A reminder that in League One, Blackburn are still 2-0 down against Plymouth Argyle. Could their 18-match unbeaten run be coming to an end?

  5. goal

    Reading 0-1 Millwallpublished at 16:31 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Leandro Bacuna OG (70 mins)

    Well, I teed this one up, didn't I?

    Leandro Bacuna deflects a nasty-looking cross past his own goalkeeper to put Millwall in front.

    Reading 0-0 Millwall

    That goal at Craven Cottage means just one Championship game remains goalless.

    When will Millwall boss Neil Harris chuck on this familiar face in search of a goal at the Madejski?...

  7. RED CARD FOR QPRpublished at 16:29 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    QPR 1-0 Barnsley

    Red card number eight in the EFL this afternoon arrives at Loftus Road, where QPR's Ryan Manning is sent off for a serious foul.

    Barnsley have 19 minutes to find an equaliser against 10 men.

  8. Big wins in progress?published at 16:27 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Forest Green 2-1 Coventry, Bristol Rovers 0-1 Shrewsbury

    No sooner had Forest Green conceded against Coventry have they taken the lead once more. This time it's Lee Collins who sends them 2-1 up. This could be a big victory!

    In League One meanwhile, Shrewsbury have scored against Bristol Rovers to keep the pressure on second-placed Blackburn who remain 2-1 down away at Plymouth Argyle.

  9. goal

    Fulham 1-0 Nottingham Forestpublished at 16:27 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Costel Pantillimon OG (67 mins)

    Fulham finally ahead at Craven Cottage after their persistence throughout.

    It looks initially like being a Lucas Piazon goal but it's going to probably go down as an own goal against Costel Pantillimon on his Forest debut.

    The keeper fails to cling on to that effort and it creeps over the line.

  10. goal

    Aston Villa 2-0 Burton Albionpublished at 16:24 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Albert Adomah (65 mins)

    That may be a wrap already at Villa Park as the hosts finally double their lead.

    Albert Adomah finishes off the move as he gets on the end of Robert Snodgrass' cross.

    Burton have battled away but have nothing to show for it.

  11. Postpublished at 16:23 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Derby County 2-0 Brentford

    Derby inches away from putting a seal on this commanding performance over Brentford.

    Matej Vydra fails to hit the target as Cameron Jerome finds him in space against 10-man Brentford but the Czech Republic striker can't convert.

  12. Postpublished at 16:21 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Sunderland 0-2 Ipswich Town

    Nothing going Sunderland's way it would seem at the Stadium of Light.

    Substitute George Honeymoon is convinced he should have a penalty after his effort hits the hands of Ipswich defender Jonas Knudsen in the box.

    Appeals waved away by the referee.

  13. goal

    Sheffield Wednesday 1-3 Birmingham Citypublished at 16:20 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Lucas Joao (54 mins)

    Game on?

    It's a long way back for the 10 men of Sheffield Wednesday, but Lucas Joao has, at least, finally scored the Owls' first goal of 2018 to make it 3-1 at Hillsborough against Birmingham.

  14. Tight in League Twopublished at 16:20 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Chesterfield 1-1 Crawley, Forest Green 1-1 Coventry

    A debut goal for Karlan Ahearne-Grant to give Crawley an equaliser against Chesterfield. It could be tight at the bottom of the League Two table this evening.

    Forest Green have conceded an equaliser against Coventry City. Marc McNulty have got the Sky Blues off the mark.

  15. goal

    Leeds United 1-3 Cardiff Citypublished at 16:17 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Sol Bamba OG (54 mins)

    An unexpected Leeds comeback on the way?

    They're down to 10 men and were 3-0 down at the break but they may just have a way back into the game after Sol Bamba diverts one into his own net.

    Stuart Dallas's cross is inadvertently deflected into the goal.

  16. Contrasting fortunes in League Onepublished at 16:16 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Northampton Town 0-1 Rochdale, Bury 0-1 Blackpool

    Big goal for Rochdale! Calvin Andrew has given them the lead against Northampton Town. How crucial could that be at the end of the season if it finishes 1-0?!

    It's bad news for Bury, though. The League One bottom side are a goal down at home to Blackpool after Sean Longstaff's tremendous volley.

  17. Postpublished at 16:14 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Fulham 0-0 Nottingham Forest

    Forest almost take a surprise lead at Fulham as a Joe Worrall header hits the post.

    Ben Osborn wriggles his way into the area to set up his team-mate but the woodwork denies him.

    Aleksandar Mitrovic comes on to make his Fulham debut after joining on loan from Newcastle this week.

  18. Another EFL dismissalpublished at 16:12 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Wycombe Wanderers 2-1 Carlisle United

    Yet another red card! This time it's Wycombe goalscorer Luke O'Nien who also gives away a penalty having handled the ball.

    Danny Grainger then fires home from the spot for Carlisle to make it 2-1.

  19. Postpublished at 16:12 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Aston Villa 1-0 Burton Albion

    Nigel CloughImage source, Rex Features

    Clinically efficient display from Villa at the moment as Scott Hogan's first-half goal is all that separates the two sides.

    Another win for Villa today would make that six in a row and push them closer to the top two. Derby just a point ahead of them as things stand.

    Bottom-of-the-table Burton desperate for a change in fortune.

  20. Postpublished at 16:11 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2018

    Sheffield Wednesday 0-3 Birmingham City

    Only now are we getting back under way at Hillsborough. We're in for a late old finish in this one.
